There's a lot of talk of the Shimmer rost being overloaded. So I wonder, is it time Shimmer increase the number of shows they do? Currently, they film 6 shows a year, should they take a chance and add an extra 2 shows? Bit risky, but not nothing super dagnerious, and 2 more shows to rotate some of the athletes and keep it fresh.

As was said in the Vol. 29-32 discussion page, there's plans to try and get another weekend of tapings in the summer and a weekend in the fall, which would effectively make for double the average output for a Shimmer year.

and likely double the time between when the show is taped and when the DVD is released.

I know Shimmer isn't going to do a TV show or PPV any time soon, if ever. So I've had another thought. Should Shimmer try and get a spot on Comcast On Demand? I know there's a wrestling section in the Sports and Fitness section where WWE, TNA and other companies (Dragon's Gate) have stuff. I imagine that money would be the biggest obstical, but it would be a way of getting it's name out on a massavie scale. They could have an Intro video talking about the company, what it's about, why they do it, esc. Maybe a video covering the top stars (Del Rey, Haze, MsChif, Melissa, Kong). Offer a few free matches to view and finally offer some of the full volumes to view at a price, say $7.99.
